Covent Garden Flower Market

Yesterday I visited the Covent Garden Flower market for the first time & absolutely loved it - despite getting up at 2.30 in the morning! They had the most amazing array of different flowers & foilages including all these beautiful tulips...


There was a display of designer arrangements on show - this was my favourite as I liked the rambley feel to it - almost like all the materials are entangled into one another.

I just had to buy a bunch of 4 beautiful hydrangeas - such amazing colours.
I've never seen roses like these before - they are called 'amnesia' & have a really delicate, antique look to them.


More colours of hydrangea...


Another designer arrangement - I like the apples in this one & thought it had a really fun, light hearted look to it!


I bought a huge bunch of anemones which are one of my favourite flowers- love the rustic look of them!

Can't wait till my next visit...
